This Windows Key thing? does it apply to windows 7?

I was ready to purchase your product for my Windows 7 computer, but saw the statement about "key" with updates. I'm assuming it doesn't apply to Windows 7 but the article doesn't say that. Again, I'm assuming it's only for Windows 10. True or False?

Can I ask for the link to the article that you have mention for your concern?

If in case the Windows key that you have read is about the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilites, Trend Micro is aware of it.

These vulnerabilities are Processor/OS Level vulnerabilities and not a Trend Micro vulnerability. We are not “fixing” the vulnerability but an update was released by our product to help enable the OS to get the update that is required to protect against these vulnerabilities.
